AN ORNAMENT TO TIE CITY.

But few cities in the country epn
boast of handSomer buildings than Aehl-
neapolis. The building interests haze
kept rapid pace with. the march OF prpg-
resS, and to-day are pre-eminent among
the industries of our city.
Among the fine structures that have
recently been erected that of the An
heuser-Busch Brewing association
branch, on the corner of Haw thorn and
COlfaX avenues, is worthy of especial
mention in our columns. s
The style of architecture is Gothic,
and the entire appearance of the build
ing is extremely striking and calculated
to be an ornament of no mean design to
the city.
Conveniently located near the st.
Louis tracks, also offers excellent
facilities to the great brewing aSSOcia-
ton for the shipment of their celebrated
beer to the several different cities where
it is popularity known.
The office is situated on Colfax ave
nue., and is connected with the bOttling
establishment, under the charge OF Mr..
Emil REEVE.
Between the store room and the Office
are the stables, in which are sheltered
supplying the demand throughout the
city for the st. Louis beer, manufactured
by the association. Above the stables
are provided apartments for the hoStiers.
The storage and cooling rooms are both
g0od-SiZed apartments, the former being
40X60 feet, and the latter 30X40 feet.
In the rear of the storage room the
association have their own switch and
the AnheuSer cars.
a few words relative to the great
brewing company and their immense
business will doubtless be of interest.
Probably no beer is better known in
this section than the St Louis beer, and
its widespread popularity is alone Suffi-
cient evidence of its worth.
AS much, if not more, of this bever-
age is sold over the bars of this city as
that manufactured by any other brew
cry, and its large sales are constantly
increasing.
The immense amount of business
done here by the AnheuSer-Busch
Brewing association neceSsitated the
establishment of branch in Minneap-
oils, to take the management of which
the association was fortunate enough to
secure +. Fliegner, gentleman whose
courteous manners, cordially and lib
erallty have justly earned for him the
U
coterie of acquaintance.
The enterprise and energy of Mr..
Fliegner are commendable, and the en-
tire success in this city of the aSSOcia-
ton he represents is undoubtedly due
to his untiring efforts.
When he took charge of this branch
last October only one team of horses was
required to do the work of delivering.
Now there are four teams constantly
employed, and another will be added
